The Concept of Diamond in Tooling

Image
Diamond is made of graphite as raw material, some metals or alloys as catalyst, under high temperature (1000~2000℃) and high pressure (557~608Mpa), the graphite structure is transformed into diamond structure. Diamond is the hardest substance known, with high compressive strength, good thermal conductivity, chemical stability, wear resistance, and strong cutting ability. Diamond can be divided into five grades: JR1, JR2, JR3, JR4, JR5, and its characteristics and uses are as follows: JR1 type: The crystals are mostly needle-shaped with rough crystal faces. They are used to make  resin bond diamond tools . They are mainly used for the fine grinding process of cemented carbide, ceramics, glass and difficult-to-grind materials. The processing effect is good, and the surface is smooth. High, sometimes used for semi-finish grinding, but not suitable for heavy-duty grinding JR2 type: Most of the crystals are of equal-area shape, suitable for manufacturing metal bond and  ceramic bon...

The Right Diamond Tools for Job

Understanding how diamond tools work is necessary for anyone who wants to be successful in this industry. Diamonds are not all the same. The two terms most often used when speaking of diamond tools are diamond grit and bond. Most diamond tools are made of synthetic diamond powder, measured in microns and called grit, and a bonding material, usually metal or resin, or a combination of bonding materials (hybrid tools). They are bonded together through injection molding, hot and cold pressing, electroplating, and vacuum brazing. The two most common problems that you can run into are: 1. The tools cut aggressively but their life is too short (premature wear). This usually happens when using soft bond on soft / abrasive floors; 2. The tools don't cut well and just slide on the floor surface. This happens when using hard bond tools on hard concrete. Often, adding water helps avoid glazing as well as removing weights, and slowing down a bit. However, sometimes you should just switch to a ...

Usage and Features of Dry Diamond Grinding Disc

Image
Feature It uses a unique resin binder, so it has better flexibility. And it is very easy to use and install. The strength of the entire grinding force is higher, because the polishing speed is very fast, so the gloss is also high. The wear resistance of the dry diamond disc is very good, and the most important thing is that it has a long service life. There will be no residue or staining on the ground after grinding and polishing. With the continuous improvement of society, the oxidation and renovation of the ground has become a development trend, but for industrial floors, warehouses and concrete floors such as parking lots, or when the polymer of the hardener is refurbished on the ground, especially on floors with more popular sealing curing agents, the best way to polish and refurbish is to use  diamond abrasive pads  and choose soft abrasive pads of different sizes. Different treatments are possible, such as fine grinding, rough grinding and polishing. The main method is t...

Diamond Tools for Floor Grinding and Polishing

Diamond abrasive is a super-hard abrasive. Although its processing history is relatively long, it has been used for more than 30 years and has been industrially produced in large quantities. Its microhardness is 8000-10000 kgf/mm², the hardness is the highest. It is the mechanism of micro-cutting when processing materials, so it is the preferred cutting tool. In recent years, there has been a large-scale increase in output and a reduction in industrial costs, high processing efficiency (more than 5 times that of ordinary), and good processing effects (can polishing highly demanding materials). Therefore, its application is becoming more and more extensive. Diamond abrasive tools mainly include metal, resin, ceramic, etc, which are classified according to the type of bonding agent.  Metal bond grinding tools  mainly include iron-based, copper-based, and cobalt-based types. It determines the processing cost of different types of materials. As a grinding tool, the particle size r...

Wet and Dry Concrete Polishing

Image
The concrete polishing industry continues to improve rapidly. Tooling and liquids are being introduced regularly to provide the best solution at the lowest cost while reducing waste and the impact on the environment. Polishing concrete is an effective way to strengthen your floors while adding an attractive shine. This can be achieved using two different methods - dry or wet. Though they are primarily the same, there are a few key differences you will want to consider when choosing which method is used for your space. Dry Concrete Polishing Dry polishing is how it all started. If you densified the concrete and then ground it with your large grinders, you could get a nice shine out of the concrete. It typically takes around 6 – 9 steps which depends on your concrete to get the maximum shine out of your concrete. New technological advancements in polished concrete have made it possible for grinding disks to withstand the heat and friction of dry polishing, ma...
